When I lived there some even had the hide to claim they were cheated in 05....Our old mate Tadhg had a fist full of Ashley Sampi's jumper when Leo took "the mark" and they claim it should he resulted in free kick and shot on goal.

Just did, and what an interesting article it was. On the question of whether the '06 Premiership is tainted, well, hell yes!! All the drugs mentioned in the article are on the 'banned' list whether they're performance enhancing or not! I'm sure they were back then, it's not as if recreational drugs in sport has been a recent development, so technically they should lose the title. Pity we wouldn't get it back though. It won't happen, the AFL are still largely motivated by the same 'image' driven attitude that got the West Coast culture in trouble in the first place. Sigh......Comment

It takes a huge effort to get a team into a Granny so I find it still rankles that West Coast played one or more players who were not clean.
At the game , my father in law commented "Cousins is playing out of himself".
Anyway , I will now turn my attention to 2015. Have intro'd some new members, so I hope it's it's a good one.Comment

Some Adelaide supporter just on SEN saying that the Crows are the losers in all this as the Eagles beat them in the preliminary final in both those years. He went on to say that the Swans were the Crows' bunnies so they are the ones who have lost premierships! Oh Dear!Those who have the greatest power to hurt us are those we love.Comment

For those out there who state that the drugs that West Coast were using weren't performance enhancing, they should read this article; No Cookies | Herald Sun.Comment

I don't want it... it's tainted. They can keep their tainted cup.
I'm smug in the knowledge that it was a tainted win.
(And Jolly's wife shouldn't have had a baby in grand final week.)Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.Comment

The story just gets more bizarre!!
Arson squad to investigate Daniel Kerr house fire - The West AustralianComment

But wait - there's more:
CCTV: Ben Cousins attempts to outrun police
(and if you think that was last weeks news, he's done it again).
Do you think Cuz and Kerry are having a contest ?Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way you'll be a mile away and he'll be shoeless.Comment

I'm with Annie in that I see it as tainted and taking it off them now wouldn't do anything for me - we won in 2005, lost in 2006. I've moved on....
As an aside now, I am starting to feel very concerned for Cousins. He seems to be facing real big psychosis/mental health issues as a result of Ice. That stuff seriously messes with a lot of people and he seems to be becoming the unfortunate poster child of why its a good idea to keep the hell away from the stuff. Seems like it's all catching up with him and it ain't pretty....Comment

The fact that the cop caught him shows there is no problem - the drugs are performance enhancing!
